II- A deeper look.
Appearance: Although told she's beautiful, Judith�defines herself as 'average'. She stands about 5'9" and weighs in at about 150 lbs, giving her a tall and solid frame. She has long, naturally wavy blonde hair that reaches just below the middle of her back back, though Judith usually has her hair kept up in a bun or ponytail instead. She has stunning blue eyes, that are usually the first thing anyone will notice about her. Her face in oval in shape with high cheekbones, full, slightly pouty lips and a slightly pale complexion that lacks any real form of natural 'rosiness'. Unlike her sisters, she has what the call a 'radiant' beauty.
�
Her right eyebrow has a small scar through it from a horse-riding accident when she was 12 which she tries to cover with her bangs. Due to the time Judith spends in her laboratory, she usually has nicks and cuts all over her hands.
�
Judith usually dresses in fine gowns and robes. When time allows her to dress casually, she wears brown rding pants and a white, loose fitting blouse that ties up the front that she tucks in.
�
Personality: Graceful, eloquent, and elegant, Judith is everything a good girl of royalty should be. She is wise and gives off a confident air, but lacks self-esteem and struggles�for praise. Internally Judith battles constantly over how she portrays herself, and feels she must meet up to the expectations of her family or be doomed to live as a disgrace. This gives her a competitive, compulsive nature that could potentially become dangerous. She hates disappointing, and although she would never admit it, Judith actually wants to be perfect and accepted by all. She is rather uncommunicative towards her family and her inquisitive and curious nature has brought alarm to both her mother and father. To save Judith from a possible public embarrassment due to her natural curiosity, her parents built for her a small laboratory underneath the castle, all too aware of Judith's aspirations in the scientific field.
�
She is not �artificial, and is a favorite among the people of Loanne because there is no falsehood to her actions. What she does and says is genuine. Judith believes in the power words can form, making her extremely trusthworthy and honest.
�
She is gentle, and due to her own personal self-esteem issues Judith is much more accepting of others than the rest of her family. She is allowed very little contact with anyone outside the castle, but whenever the opportunity arises Judith is gracious and polite.
�
History: Born the first child�to the Duchess of Pidona and the Marquis of Loanne, Judith is the eldest of five children- three girls, two of which are twins, and one son. She was the pride and joy of her parents until her brother, Theobald, was born. Ever since, Judith feels that she has been in a constant competition for attention from her parents, a competition that has weighed heavily on her heart.
�
Her worst competition was with her younger sisters, who were spitting images of her mother, with curly red hair and bright green eyes. They recieved a lot of attention from their mother, which made young Judith quite envious. The envy soon turned into harsh resentment towards both her siblings and parents. She turned her attention to other ventures- gardening and horses comprised a good chunk of her childhood. It was around this time her parents made her the lab downstairs, mainly to get her out of their hair and away from trouble.
�
She did grow up as any royal should. She was considered to be the smartest of all the siblings, but lacked the physical appeal of her sisters or aristocratic charm of her brother. Her fight to be accepted and praised by her family had given her�a complex she'd never grow out of. Her sisters became quite vain, all of them pre-occupied purely on themselves.
�
Now 20, Judith aspires to be a leader of the people and to become something proud and respectable. She wishes to expand her knowledge and perhaps even leave the castle. She has an secret wish that she - not her sisters or Theobald- will one day rule Loanne.
�
Through her own endeavours, Judith managed to publish several books based on the research conducted within her private laboratory. Since there has been very little information of this sort beforehand, Judith has gained some public acclaim as a biologist outside of Loanne. Her books mainly concern the plant and animal life surrounding Loanne and Mules.
III- Battle Style
Weaponry: Judith is mildly skilled with short swords and much better with short bows.
�Magic and Affinity: Earth. She is unaware of the use of magic, has only read about it in books. She wishes to explore it, but her family forbids it.
Skills: Judith can talk her way out of a lot of tough situations. Her diplomacy skills are quite good. If worse comes to worst, she's able to pick off enemies efficiently with a bow.
Battle Style: She'd never jump into a fight. Talking is her thing. She'd try diplomacy, even distraction tactics. Only after these horribly fail will she take up arms, and even then she prefers sniping of with her arrows, saving hand to hand combat with her sword as a last resort.
